What does a feel-good video about compassion in nursing, a trainwreck of social ineptitude at the site of a roadside attraction, and the television show Gravity Falls all have in common? Well, they're all in this episode, kinda funny, and somehow blisteringly earnest! After winning a prestigious Daisy Award for nursing last year, Sarah was selected for an exciting opportunity: recording a video meant to showcase her compassion and dedication set to soft piano music. Sarah doesn't quite spontaneously combust while talking about it, but it's a close thing.Meanwhile, Cyrus recounts their renewed obsession with the television show Gravity Falls, and the stop they made at the real-life Mystery Shack on a road trip down to California. They were definitely super normal and the experience hasn't haunted their dreams in the month since this was recorded.Originally we recorded this to be a single bonus episode about Gravity Falls, but as it turns out we had so many thoughts and feelings about things only tangentially related that we just had to turn this into a three-part series. You can find part two, where we actually talk about Gravity Falls, uploaded for free on our Patreon right here. Part three, where we cover The Book of Bill, is right here in our main feed! It's a triple episode day!Support the show

Highlights From Today's Episode Jamie “It's truly inspiring what colleagues do in our field, and sometimes it's a thankless job. You don't always see patients from start to finish—you don't get to celebrate with them. In this case I felt that DAISY was an incredibly rewarding program, and it really is for the exceptional nurse that goes beyond measure.” Timestamp (TS) 06:35 Laurie “I think the wonderful thing about nursing is that we don't realize what an impact we have on people's lives when we're just doing our day-to-day jobs. We are always striving to provide the best care that we can to every patient and family, but there's an impact that we don't really truly understand.” TS 12:55 Kathy “Our nurses are very eager to recognize their colleagues when they see something, and their colleague would be like, ‘No, no. I'm just doing my job.' But sometimes they're doing above and beyond of what is expected and normal. We do have a lot of celebration. We find its very helpful to keep morale and engagement up.” TS 16:02

The co-founder of The DAISY Foundation and the DAISY Award® for Extraordinary Nurses talks about recognizing the extraordinary compassion that nurses provide every day. With 2 million nominations and 200,000 awards to nurses in 33 countries, DAISY's impact is well-documented, contributing to a healthy work environment, nurse retention, and the patient/family experience. Learn about the DAISY-sponsored grant for nurses doing specific research in advanced care and treatment of older adults. About Bonnie Bonnie Barnes, FAAN, and her husband, Mark, were retired, growing wine grapes in Sonoma, when Mark's son Patrick developed a rare auto-immune disease in late 1999. Upon Patrick's death following an 8-week illness, they established The DAISY Foundation in gratitude for the nurses' care Patrick's and the family experienced when he was in the hospital. The DAISY Award was created to provide meaningful recognition to compassionate nurses. Today, The DAISY Award is celebrated in over 5,200 healthcare facilities and nursing schools internationally. DAISY's impact is well-documented, contributing to a healthy work environment, nurse engagement, and enriching the patient/family experience. Bonnie and Mark are passionate about honoring nurses, no matter where they practice, no matter where they are in careers. Key Takeaways DAISY enables patients and families to say thank you for the nursing care they experienced by sharing their stories of gratitude and how it made a difference. Research shows patients feel it creates a balance. Meaningful recognition is relevant and specific—it is not a pat on the back or pizza at the end of a long shift. Nurses need to be reminded of the reason they became nurses. It ties them to their purpose. There is a growing body of evidence that meaningful recognition offsets nurse burnout. DAISY grants money to nurses who are doing research and evidence-based projects on the treatment of older adults (for example fall prevention or food security) and how to mitigate social determinants of health.

Registered nurse with the Dallas County Hospital and recent DAISY Award winner Tonya Summerson talks about how it feels to win the award and the changes in nursing over her 27-year career.

Carnivore diet: Prior: I was very skeptical. I debated people on the carnivore diet on Twitter espousing the benefits of Mediterranean / plant-based diets. Start: August 9, 2021 Benefits first 3 months: 30lb fat loss and 10lb of lean mass gain, digestive irritability reduced, energy levels and mood improved.  Benefits after 3 months: I realized that for the first time in 2 decades I was no longer depressed. I have a gym routine again after 2 decades of lack of motivation.  I've been sharing my story on YouTube. Regenarianism: I call myself a Regenarian. Regenarians make three foundational commitments. 1. We support farming practices that protect our home, planet earth, and the farmers that provide us with food. 2. We recognize that humans have the right to access ways of eating that are consistent with our species, Homo sapien, and 3. With the acknowledgment that life requires a balance of right and wrong actions, we support farmers and hunters who do the most right by treating livestock and prey according to the highest ethical standards possible.  My pinned tweet speaks to the way of the Reganarians. https://twitter.com/Regenarian/status...

We are baaaaack with another jaw-dropping episode from our “Client Confessions” series, this time featuring one of Holly's rockstar students, Melissa Donovan. Melissa is a professional nurse and lactation consultant, a fulltime mom, a Cub Scout volunteer, a child chauffeur, a “Today Show” guest, and now, a new fiancée!  OMG -You gotta hear how it all came to be. Get the new episode now at https://apple.co/2XXKHfC or wherever you get your podcasts! “You heard it here first folks: If Melissa D. can get her act together and find another husband, dammit, then you can too!” – Holly Katz Tough Times + Tough Talk + Tough Love = New Life In this week's episode Holly introduces us to her star client, Melissa Donovan. They met years ago when Melissa was working endlessly as a nurse teaching lactation to new moms, she had recently been divorced and had two boys to raise.  She was in the weeds, y'all, and for any of you who have been there, you know what we mean. #DeadOnHerFeet #CanYouRelate? We are going to warn you that this hilarious episode has even MORE swear words than ever, because the two #BFFFS talk a lot of truth about life and love. Real life stuff that ends up being really funny, and with the happiest ending EVER.  Picture Melissa who lived in scrubs and Crocs 24/7. She was in the hospital at all hours of the day and night, meeting with new moms in stressful situations, wrangling her own children, volunteering as a Cub Scout leader, and starting over as a single mom.   Her motto is “Jesus, Scouts, Sports” - and always in that order. So, she had a lot on her plate! And as we hear TIME AND TIME AGAIN, she allowed zero time for herself.   But as per usual, your favorite personal stylist Holly Katz came to the rescue! Melissa tells us every detail of the good, the bad and the ugly of some their first styling meetings. And it was a lot of the bad and the ugly. From her closet full of Easter baskets to her bath tub full of toys – this poor girl had no space or time for herself. Working night shifts and being a single mom took everything she had. Doing something for her own well-being was actually below the bottom of her list.  So, things started to slide - like how she was feeling. She felt like crap! And you want to know why? The minute Holly started asking her a few hard questions, in a second, she knew why: - Why are you wearing your work scrubs at home after work or on non-working days? - Why do you wear crappy scrubs that cost $18 dollars when you have a grown-up professional job? - How come you can't brush your hair? - Where do your kids take a bath if your bathtub is full of crap? - Where are all of your clothes if your closet is full of Easter baskets?   We told you it was tough love and tough talk. But Melissa is so awesome – and so damn funny - that she laughs through the entire story, even though she says they had some pretty good fashion battles. my Holly eventually convinced Melissa of a few critical wardrobe dos and don'ts: Do not wear scrubs when you are not working or at the hospital. Your mind needs a break from the daily grind. Do not wear cheap-ass scrubs that fit terribly. You will look like shit, and because they don't fit well, they will allow you to gain weight without noticing.  You can afford professional attire, and you will be more respected in your career if you don't look like you just rolled out of bed. #DUH! Why are you still wearing a nursing bra if you are not nursing anymore? Do you need to pull your boobs out to teach lactation? Buy some new bras. Leggings are not pants. Work-out clothes are not an outfit. Holly doesn't care if you are at a baseball game on Saturday morning. If you aren't working out, don't wear work-out clothes all day. Get up every day, put on your pants, a cute top, and real shoes. You will feel better. Go shopping, get clothes that fit well. Do not wait for your perfect body size and shape to buy clothes. Buy clothes that fit in the now. Don't be afraid to buy that one size up. If it looks better on you, ignore the size number. Buy a dress or outfit for a special occasion, even if you don't have one planned. Even if you think your life sucks so much that you will never go to an event again. Because it is too stressful to scramble if and when you need something appropriate at the last minute. Plus, you just never know (hint, hint, hint)!   The result? Melissa says this was the beginning of her life turn-around. She was a single mom, she was working too much, and her weight was fluctuating due to lack of sleep and self-care.  But, with Holly's help, she did learn how to shop, how to buy clothes for her current body size and shape, to clean the shit out of her closet (it all went into the tub, but, oh well!), AND she bought the perfect special occasion dress for that ‘someday.' And you know what? It manifested itself. Her someday came!  She was at the hospital one day, and everyone gathered around her and surprised her with the news that she had been nominated for and won a Daisy Award: a national recognition program that honors the super-human work nurses do for patients and families every day. Not everyone gets this award, so this was completely BADASS. And guess what? Instead of having a panic attack in her crappy scrubs, Melissa was already prepared! She had gone to a real store that sells professional medical clothing, and eventually even bought a pair of Vince Camuto scrubs! And, because she took Holly's advice (begrudgingly) and had a great dress in her closet, she was not the least bit worried about receiving her award when it was time.  She got to enjoy the moment. Imagine. And it just gets better from there.  She was asked to appear on the TODAY SHOW of all things, and you know what? She knew what to wear! No stress! (Except for the live TV part.)  So, Melissa started wearing actual clothing that fit her well and helped her to feel better in her non-work life, including camping trips with the Cub Scouts and at her sons' baseball games. While all the other moms wore yoga pants and bed-head, Melissa wore real pants and cute outfits! And. Guess. What? She met a guy. At the baseball field. When she did not look like she had just rolled out of bed.  And the rest is history. Her and her beau are engaged, and the next chapter is when Holly styles her wedding. We cannot make this shit up, fashion friends. Fashion is your friend, not your enemy, especially if Holly whips you into shape with all the love in the world.

COVID-19 continues to dominate the news and continues to present challenges. Jill Devine wanted to get a medical professional on to discuss this very challenging virus. Cindy Lefton joined Jill this week to provide a nurses’ perspective. Cindy has many accolades: she is a frontline care provider ER nurse in St. Louis, she is the pro bono Director of Research for The DAISY Foundation, and she is also the Vice President of Organizational Consulting at Psychological Associates, a St. Louis consulting company that applies behavioral science to business performance. In 2010, Cindy began her partnership with The DAISY Foundation, an organization that recognizes and rewards nurses who go above and beyond in the service of patients and their families. Cindy's role as Director of Research at DAISY, a volunteer position, allowed the organization to grow exponentially and to provide recognition and encouragement to thousands of nurses. By recognizing the good being done by nurses around the world, Cindy has contributed to decreased rates of compassion fatigue and burnout, as well as increased nurse engagement in healthcare facilities that have adopted the DAISY Award. She recently spoke about extraordinary nurses and the need for meaningful recognition based upon a nationwide study of 1,100 nurses. Cindy told Jill stories about the incredible dedication of nurses, in general, but especially with the pandemic. She said the most important thing we can do to re-energize nurses is to simply say, “thank you”. When asked her opinion on the future of COVID-19, Cindy said it’s such a nasty disease and there’s still a lot about the disease medical professionals don’t have answers to. She said the Southern Hemisphere is beginning their fall/winter season and what happens during this time will provide valuable insight for the United States. COVID-19 is killing a lot of people and those who survive could experience long-term effects. She’s uncertain when or if life will go back to “normal”, but the development of a vaccine will play a major role. Until then, we must practice social distancing, washing our hands constantly, and wearing masks. You can access Cindy’s LinkedIn profile to learn more about her and how you can help.

This is a very special episode! I sit down with Lauren Landis to discuss her career and most importantly, how she was a nurse on the same unit that her dad received stroke care. We talk about Lauren's unique background, safe staffing ratios and what her first job was like and spend a majority of time discussing her father, whom suffered a stroke. This case is presented as a case study with knowledge about risk factors, how important an a1c is, what a large vessel stroke means, what neurointerventional care entails and so, so, much more. Lauren describes her experience as a nurse going through tough choices, with appreciation of her prior coworkers and how it is okay to change an environment to better one's own mental health to better care for patients. Lauren's bravery to share this story is not one to pass along-it is a must listen! Lauren is a 2016 graduate of Penn State Mont Alto. She began her career on a Med-Surg Neuro unit before stepping into the world of critical care. Her current area of work is in surgical/trauma intensive care, though she will always have a place in her heart for Neurocritical care patients. She received the Daisy Award in 2017 and a token of recognition by Gift of Life Donor Program for the nursing care of an organ donor in 2019. When Lauren isn't donning/doffing PPE, doing Q1hr neuro checks, or replacing electrolytes, you can find her cooking new recipes, napping away the nightshift hangover, or playing video games with her fiancé, Joshua.
